Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I have a genuine question.
How do you navigate the urge to push away good people when you're afraid of getting hurt?
Sometimes, when someone treats me with genuine kindness and good intentions, my instinct is to view it as a threat or push them away simply because that kind of safety feels unfamiliar. How do you anchor your mind in God's peace and learn to accept healthy love when your defense mechanisms tell you to run?

Would love to hear scriptures, prayers, or personal experiences that have helped you heal in this area.
